When Sin Caught Me and Sent Me to Mercy

October 10, 2022

Psalm 32:1-2 (ESV) 1 Blessed is the one whose transgression is forgiven, whose sin is covered. 2 Blessed is the man against whom the Lord counts no iniquity,and in whose spirit there is no deceit. Can a sinner in need ever grow weary of these verses?This one can’t. An offering for the Poetry Project Read … More When Sin Caught Me and Sent Me to Mercy

Is Prayer Worth It?

May 23, 2022

The question itself is misguided. Everything that God commands us to do is worthy and valuable. But it is a question that nevertheless, pops up in our heads with more regularity than most of us want to admit. So, with that in mind, can I tell you a story? “Many people know that Young Life … More Is Prayer Worth It?

What we love makes us wise, or stupid.

April 12, 2021

Whoever loves discipline loves knowledge,But he who hates reproof is stupid. Proverbs 12:1 Ours is a culture that hates discipline. It does not want to know the precepts of God. It rejects the commands of a law giving God. It hates to be confronted on the wickedness of its choices. And as a result, it … More What we love makes us wise, or stupid.

It is Almost Over for Baby Boomers

March 8, 2021

This week I contemplated how to speak the gospel to my own baby boomer generation–all of them. A FaceBook world encourages grandiose thoughts like that. My thoughts ran along the lines of reminding all my fellow boomers that we aren’t getting any younger. Not one of us can add sand to the top of the … More It is Almost Over for Baby Boomers

Argue with Someone Else

February 15, 2021

“. . . there’s a significant difference between how Jesus prayed and the prayer life of many Christians today.”  Experiencing Prayer with Jesus, 9Henry and Norman Blackaby(Multnomah, 2006) I’m not going to argue the point. I’m not going to try to prove the point. There are too many years behind me and too few years … More Argue with Someone Else

The Desperate Honesty of Keith Green

December 7, 2020

Today a friend (thank you Robert) quoted from a Keith Green album (No Compromise), released in 1978, just four years before Keith died in a plane crash at the age of 28. It is an album with legs. Now 42 years old, with songs that are even older, it still holds up. It still seems … More The Desperate Honesty of Keith Green

What Would It Mean to Hear You?

June 1, 2020

Part of the Poetry Project Read Psalm 20 first What Would it Mean to Hear You? What would it mean to hear you answer in the day of trouble? To hear a word, a response from You after all our cries for protection, after all our sacrifices and offerings, after all our waiting and longing, … More What Would It Mean to Hear You?

Do Not Grow Weary in Doing Good

May 18, 2020

Today we had our first ever ZOOM meeting with 7 prayer warriors.  We had one more than usual, and for 55 minutes we prayed for one thing—revival. All went well until the very end when ZOOM failed on one end, and for two others, Comporium failed. Just one of those things? Just the kind of … More Do Not Grow Weary in Doing Good

Sanctifying the Night — Sheep Who Listen Volume 1  Day 14 “We who are His sheep, hear His voice. We know that He has called us by name. Know then, that the Lord is God; it is He who made us and we are His. We are His people, the sheep of His pasture. And … More At Rest in The Shepherd’s Pen
